Solaris 11.4 - Logout / Shut down Failure with White Screen of death

John IrelandJul 23 2025

When shutting down or logging out of Solaris 11.4_81 CBE the commands don't work as intended. this applies to both the terminal or Google Screen. Using Killall, init or shutdown commands in the terminal the screen goes totally white, the keyboard and mouse are unresponsive. After 2 two minutes of no disk activity use the power button to turn off the machine. When rebooting the system displays three pages of shutdown related errors, the kernel/system rebuilds then reboots.

On the Google Screen the logout command doesn't work as intended with no re-logon screen. The power button icon does nothing.

Thoughts please.
